TTIF ATLANTA OEORGIAN AND NEWS. WEDNESDAY.

The following; editorial from the Chattanooga News is worth reading and studying carefully: (From the Chattanooga Newt.) A FINE KXAMPLE. The city within 150 miles of Chattanooga, which is probably growing faster than any of our neighbors, is Atlanta. Persons who consider moving to this sec tion of the South will, no doubt, compare Chattanooga with At lanta. Chattanooga’s growth has been splendidly satisfactory dur ing the past two years, but if it can be increased In any way, It behooves the citizens of Chatta nooga to take the steps necessa ry to make our community the favorite with desirable new citi zens. So it is well for us to analyze conditions frankly. Suppose, for example, gome de sirable family, reared in a Chris tlan community, contemplated re moval to a Central Southern. City. What special inducements eouid Chattanooga give over Atlanta? We might cite a good many. In fact, in only two respects do we think that city, more than Chat tanooga would make a special appeal to a family of the above description. It is proper to speak of these. The first is, that Atlanta has solved the problem of law en forcement under prohibition bet ter than any other Southern city. Very little strong drink is sold in Atlanta. The law is evaded to a S reater extent as to lighter rinksj but the number of saloons it limited and by reason of the prohibition of the sale of whisky, drunkenness is reduced to a min imum. There is a fine spirit exhibited in Atlanta for law enforcement. The law is accepted as final and there is no conspiracy against it. The newspapers do not encour age its violation. This sentiment for law observance is a splendid psdestal upon which to erect a municipal edifice. Nor has law enforcement mili tated against business progress. There is no greater fallacy than that a wide-open town aids growth. Morality, in communi ty os w'ell as individual, not on ly is right, but also is profitable. Another triumph of Atlanta Is in reducing the so-called social evil to a minimum. Two young men belonging to what is called the Men antt Religion Forward Movement, one a lawyer, the oth er a business man of wealth, are largely responsible for this re form. Space was taken in the newspapers and day after day ad vertisements were written by the lawyer and published, urging the abolition of the restricted district Men of wealth, members of ehurchee, prominent in church and public affairs, cancelled their leases and demanded possession of their premises, being used for immoral purposes. The wealthy young business man expressed the curious doctrine that “business is a ministry and that a man should serve the world in his business.” A home was provided for the women who expressed a desire to reform and more than 200 were thus taken care of. Conditions in Atlanta are now cleaner than in any other American city, it is said. The example set by our sister city, ought to appeal to us, both from the standpoint of placing Chattanooga on an equality with its competitive city in respect to the correction of these evils and •Iso because such reforms they might have in the race for growth and population be of tre mendous worth to this communi ty outside of any effect it might have In the race for growth and population and business. It took two men of courage in Atlanta to do these big things— one man of courage in Chatta nooga could do much; a hundred men of courage would certainly lead the way to a new' era. Big Pool Filled With Clear, Pure Water—Fair Mermaid Will Take First Plunge. Piedmont Lake will be opened to the public Thursday morning at 5 o’clock. President J. O. Cochran, of the Park Board, made* the announcement Wed nesday, all arrangements for the re opening having been completed. Wednesday morning the high water mark was reached. It is clear, pure water, pumped direct from the. city reservoir, and it lies In the lake as clear as a crystal. Through it is visible the large new concrete bottom nf the inclosed swimming pool, and out beyond the fence the diver can set* depths he can not reach. One of the flock of didappers which have made a home of the lake since last summer sailed up to the f.*nc<* and then dived deep after a minnow. His every movement under the water could be seen. He did no* know it was his last day of dominion. Girl to Open Season. A fair maiden will make the first plunge of season Thursday morning. She has not been selected as yet, but the park authorities have decided that a woman must part the water first as a good omen. Thousands will hollow her thi.~ sea son—far more than in any season of the pa«L The inclosed swimming pool has been doubled in size* and new diving towers have been erected. While there were only abut 100 dressing rooms last summer. 444 lock ers have been provided for men this season and 100 dressing rooms for women. Police Chief Beavers has promised perfect police protection against rowdyism. The rules governing the swimming in the lake are: Rules for Season.

HERPICIDE The man who wears a toupee does not like it, but has the courage of his con victions. Nature never intended that the top of the head should be left entirely without protection. A bald head is very suscep tible to contraction of colds and neu ralgia. Wearing an artificial top piece counteracts this tendency, and. aside from the improvement in the personal appearance, is amply justified. How much better it would have been had the man, now chronically bald and wearing a toupee, but realized earlier in life the approaching danger and de voted a little regular attention to his hair; which would have saved it. There is a remedy which will abso lutely prevent baldness. Loss of hair in nine cases out of ten is unnecessary, being due to dandruff and the germ that check for $100. j causes it. This germ must be destroyed the next best $50. the next $25, the | and the accumulations of dandruff next $15. and the next twelve will |——— be given a prize of $5 each. __ In order to present a logical con- ! ~ elusion and win one of the prizes \ it will be necessary to follow the 1 story closely and become familiar I with each character.

It struck me so forci bly that I did not wait to look over the paper, but got on the job. On December 1, 1906. we landed In Atlanta with two or three months provisions (came from the country) 1 and not more than $20 in money. Went to work for $lh per week, but was raised soon. That first year was a blue one Sickness of family was followed by a spell of typhoid fever by myself, so I closed the year $40 behind where I began By April 15, 1908. this was cleared up. Then the greatest trouble that confronted me was those monthly rent receipts, with the 513 on the corner?. They looked mighty unlucky tome. About that time a real estate firm advertised very' extensively some lots of a subdivision which they had made at $200 t?er lot—$2 down and $2 per week.
